"Your Majesty, things in the harem have nothing to do with the number of people. As long as there are people there, there will definitely be fights. Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about these things. Just keep whoever you like and who you like, by your side. good."
Chu Xin smiled helplessly. In fact, she had seen a lot when she was young. These things were actually good compared to here.
"You are quite emotional."
Yuan Heng sighed slightly. His impression of Chu Xin was still in his childhood, but he never expected that Chu Xin would come to him again after so many years of wandering around.
"Jungui is a very good mistress, and you won't feel wronged if you stay with her."
Yuan Heng just left a few words and turned around to go in. All the people he brought with him were outside the door. Chu Xin listened to this meaningless sentence and blinked without saying anything.
From now on, Ah Yun was still tinkering with herbal medicine in the house. She did these things every day. She felt that the smell of medicine on her body was too strong and could not be washed away no matter how hard she washed.
"How about saying that Miss Xin'er is Chunguiren's lucky star? As long as he goes there, many things will happen around her, which will be good for him. His Majesty went to Chunguiren's place a few nights ago, but turned a blind eye to Ningguiren. !”
Qiao Xia came in with tea as she spoke. People in the medicine garden also heard about the situation in the palace in recent days.
The popular Ning Guiren in the past has become more and more unpopular for some reason, while the unknown Chun Guiren has been gaining momentum recently and can even handle matters in the palace together with Ning Guiren. Both of them are also It's considered equal.
"We can say who His Majesty likes and dislikes at will. What's more, I have always liked pure noble people. She has a gentle temperament and is kind to others. It is only a matter of time that Your Majesty will like her!"
Ah Yun also thinks it's normal. Doesn't His Majesty like gentle women? It's not surprising that a pure noble would like her if she is so gentle.
"It's quite strange. It's only been two months. How could Ning Guiren be like this? It's been almost two years since she entered the palace. Hasn't she always been favored? Things in the harem are really It’s quite complicated!”
Qiao Xia lamented that even if there were only a few people in His Majesty's harem, things could be so complicated. If there were more people in the harem, I really don't know what the trouble would be.
"As you said, I still prefer pure nobles, but I would rather she be favored by His Majesty!"
Ayun picked all the broken medicinal materials to one side and wrapped all the better ones in oil paper. These were used to prepare ointments to lighten scars. Every medicinal material needed was carefully sorted out to be the best.
"If a pure noble is favored, her life will be easier. If Aiwujiwu is loved, sister Xin'er will also have a better life!"
Ayun has always thought like this. Seeing that this winter is about to pass, spring is coming soon, and she hopes that everything will slowly get better.
Chu Xin was sitting in the yard basking in the sun, feeling the warmth of the sun shining on her body. It was so warm!
Sure enough, following Chun Guiren, the opportunities to see Yuan Heng have gradually increased recently, and many times I can exchange a few words with him.
In fact, Yuan Heng is a really good person. Although he is weak in body, his heart is so tolerant, giving Ning Guiren opportunities again and again, and giving her enough face.
Many times when I talk about my childhood, I always thank him for drawing that picture of orchids. A picture may not mean much, but the intention to help others is really precious.
She was still young at that time, and no one in the harem seemed to like her when she just came out of the cold palace. Except for Chu Shu, all the other sisters would only follow Chu Yi to bully her. If she could get help, her heart would really change. Very warm.
"Xin'er."
Chun Guiren was dressed very elegantly today. When Chu Xin came over, she just wanted to get up, but she waved people to sit down. There were no outsiders in the yard at the moment, so there was no need to be polite at all.
"In the past few days, I heard that His Majesty has turned away Ning Guiren several times, and he seems to be very indifferent. In fact, sometimes I feel a little guilty in my heart, because in the past two years, Ning Guiren has indeed been She has sacrificed a lot, but in her opinion, my existence has robbed her of everything.”
Chun Guiren didn't care and went directly to Chu Xin, as if he was used to talking to her about anything.
"But being in the harem means fighting openly and secretly. If you soften your heart today, if she is favored again tomorrow, she may not let you go!"
Chu Xin smiled. She had grown up in a harem, a place like the cold palace, and was used to being flattered and put down.
Naturally, I am used to seeing those high-ranking concubines cry and scream when they are thrown into the cold palace, and I am also used to hearing them say that they were unjustly killed. These things are too many. too much.
Now if Chun Guiren is soft-hearted, can you guarantee that Ning Guiren will also be soft-hearted? Can you guarantee that she doesn't hold any grudge against all this?
"Xin'er, can you tell me, what was your identity before? Since you have been with me during this period, I have always felt that you are not at all different from ordinary girls.
You can recognize the texture of those jade, know the hairstyles of so many noble women, your aesthetics are very different from their lotus fragrance, and more importantly, you actually know so many things in the harem, tell me, you What happened in the past? "
The noble man held Chu Xin's hand and asked softly every word.
In fact, he is also a sensitive person, and he can see the difference between Chu Xin and other ordinary palace people.
Chu Xin gave her the impression that she was a little more intelligent, and even many of her actions were not like those of a palace servant who could only serve others. Some of them actually made her feel a little more like a young lady from a wealthy family.
Whether it's the exquisite and exquisite dressing up every time he serves her, or the exquisiteness he talks about when talking about these pastries, she can't help but admire him.
Anyone who knows these rules must be born rich or noble, and will definitely not have the temperament that an ordinary palace person can have.
"In fact, if you can guess it, you have already guessed it. Many things don't need to be asked so clearly."
Chu Xin could only smile helplessly, obviously not wanting to answer this question or continue talking about this topic.
In fact, I feel very happy and satisfied staying with Pure Noble these days. I am so satisfied that sometimes I forget what I have experienced before. It feels like those memories have become far away, and it feels like those people are no longer there.
"You don't want to say it, and I won't ask forcefully. I just think that if you serve me, wouldn't you feel a little aggrieved?"
The pure nobleman asked with some distress. If she was born into a wealthy family as she thought, then it would be a bit aggrieved to be a servant in the palace.
"You don't have to think so, pure nobleman. I like to stay by your side and serve you. What's more, I'm lucky to have such a good master like you."
Chu Xin quickly shook her head. She didn't mind this at all. She even felt happier being with a pure noble than when she was a concubine!
I don’t have to endure those weird ridicules or face those disappointments. I feel really relaxed all over.
"So I hope you can rise to the top, I hope you can live a good life, but now that you are already in the harem, although some fights are inevitable, don't be changed by these fights, but more importantly, don't treat people who are not worthy Be soft-hearted.”
Chu Xin suddenly had a solemn look on her face and persuaded her word by word.
She had seen too many things in the cold palace when she was a child, and she didn't dare to gamble on such things.
It doesn't matter what kind of person Ning Guiren is, because she will never believe it or be soft-hearted.
"It's really nice to have you by my side."
The noble man suddenly smiled. What didn't he understand at this moment? He felt ashamed for his soft-heartedness just now. In fact, there was really nothing to be soft-hearted about.
In the past, when I was silent, I was bullied by Ning Guiren. Have I forgotten it now? After only a few good days, do I feel that I am a good person?
"What you have to do now is to do nothing. Remember not to take the initiative to take action. Now you have to wait for Ning Guiren to polish off all the affection in His Majesty's heart. This is the most important thing."
Chu Xin lowered her voice and whispered, even though Yuan Heng is a person who values feelings, he is not a fool, and those feelings cannot be used forever.
If Ning Guiren is ignorant and keeps playing tricks again and again, I am afraid that these feelings will be polished away. By then, Yuan Heng will not care about her face.
Chun Guiren listened to these words, and pretended that nothing happened these days. He followed Yuan Heng's instructions to help Ning Guiren deal with various things in the harem. In his spare time, he made food himself and sent it to him.
Everything is the same as before, nothing has changed.
Sometimes when I see Ning Guiren, when faced with her strange cynicism, I act as if I have never heard it and just smile lightly.
But the duller her reaction was, the angrier Ning Guiren felt.
After the discussion was over, just after Chun Guiren left, Ning Guiren lost his temper in his palace again.
"I've really had enough!"
Ning Guiren covered her heart, feeling that her heart ached so much.
"His Majesty said he wanted her to manage the affairs of the harem with me, but he really took himself seriously! He still wants to interfere in many things. I have been managing the affairs of the harem for two years. Who does she mean? There are so many twists and turns in this. Can you figure it out clearly?"
The affairs of the harem were already complicated and intertwined. She had been taking care of them for almost two years, and now suddenly there was another person coming to intervene. She really felt unhappy everywhere.
"It doesn't matter. After all, it's His Majesty's wish. Why don't you leave all the affairs to her to deal with these days? You can have a good rest and take good care of yourself?"
Jinxiu hurriedly knelt on the ground and beat Ning Guiren's legs. The master's anger was really too great these days, and it was really scary to get angry easily. It was obviously not like this before!
"Impossible," Ning Guiren glared, "Why should I hand over my management to another person? Could it be that she wants to take away everything I have!"
